If a fuse blows, it means your electrical system has been overloaded, or that an electrical fault has occurred. When a fuse blows, the Cana- dian Standards Association sug- gests homeowners: * unplug the appliances on the overloaded circuit and turn the main switch on the panelboard to the ‘off?’ position. « make sure your hands are dry and that you are standing on a dry surface. © if you are using a plug fuse, screw it in as tightly as possible. Fuses not tightened properly can cause a bad connection, resulting in a heat build-up. * over a period of time, plug fuses may become loose. It is a good practice to check them every six months to make sure they are tight enough. © Never overfuse. If, for example, you replace a 15-amp fuse with a 30-amp fuse, the 30-amp fuse can allow the wir- ing to overheat. For further electrical safety, do not allow a cord to become trap- ped under appliances.
